About me:

With over three years of experience in the creator economy, I'm passionate about helping creators market their content, gain feedback, and build social proof.

I founded Privy after struggling to hire influencers and creators for brands. I was looking for a way to vet creators before hiring them. I started Privy with the idea of developing the "Rotten Tomatoes for creators."

I am always looking for new opportunities to collaborate with others who share my vision for empowering the creative community.
